Work on the Lakeland city government's phones made calling into City Hall, Lakeland Electric and the Lakeland Police Department impossible this morning. But the system should now be restored.The city replaced its phone server and software over the weekend, said Kevin Cook, a city spokesman. The installation process caused a temporary interruption to service, but it was restored Sunday. The service went down again 8 a.m. today.A Lakeland Police Department spokeswoman said the agency wasn't receiving some non-emergency phone calls today, but the system has been restored.
